Thanks for the Computer Upgrade!

Last semester, Janitor Joe and Paddy convinced the administration to give us an upgrade on the computer we have in our office.

Since our last upgrade in 1994, we've been working on a TI-99, which was a sweet computer in its day but it's getting a little outdated. It's one of the only models around that still makes you play games from a tape recorder. I liked it, but Paddy wanted something new that would allow us to look at porn.

So, the principal finally caved and gave us our new equipment. We got a sweet Commodore 64, complete with a 5 1/4" disc drive! They even gave us some cool games, like Jordan vs. Bird and California Games.

I got a C-64 book at the flea market and after only three hours of entering a program, I got a syntax error. However, I found out what I did wrong, started from scratch, and when I was finished the screen flashed a bunch of colors really fast. It was totally worth the effort.

No word yet on the porn. We may have to wait until our next upgrade when we get that Colecovision the principal mentioned.
